Romero Linked with Inter Milan Transfer in Reported €90m Spurs Double Raid

First mention — filed under speculative.

Inter Milan are being linked with a move for Tottenham defender Cristian Romero, with the Italian club reportedly working on a double transfer that would also bring Djed Spence to the San Siro. As reported by CaughtOffside on 17 July 2026, citing Italian sources, the proposed double deal is valued at around €90m in total — though no individual fee breakdown has been reported at this stage.

CaughtOffside is a tier-three outlet, and this is a first-mention item out of Italy, so the card sits firmly at the bottom of the ladder. No corroboration from a senior football correspondent or established Italian transfer outlet has surfaced at time of writing. That keeps the stage squarely at [EARLY].

The context is worth noting. Tottenham narrowly avoided relegation from the Premier League in the 2025/26 season, and it would be reasonable to expect the club to undergo meaningful squad reassessment this summer. Whether that reassessment extends to allowing a player of Romero’s profile to depart — the Argentine centre-back remains one of Spurs’ most recognised defensive assets — is a separate question the sources do not yet answer.

Inter are simply described as “working on” the double deal. There is no reporting on whether Tottenham have engaged, whether personal terms have been discussed, or what timeframe the Italian club is working to. The shape of a deal is not yet visible; this is monitoring territory only.

Socceroos note: Romero is Argentine and this move carries no direct Matildas or Socceroos implication.

What moves this card forward: a second outlet — ideally Italian — reporting direct contact between clubs, or any indication that Spurs have set a price.
